NFL star Odell Beckham Jr. may be having the last laugh against critics of his decision to take his salary in Bitcoin.

When Beckham opted to convert his 2021 base salary of $750,000 from the Los Angeles Rams to Bitcoin as part of an endorsement deal with the Block-owned (NYSE:XYZ) Cash App, critics were quick to argue that he was making a mistake. These critics only grew louder as a market crash ensued the following year, which saw Bitcoin lose nearly 80% of its value.

“Sooooo Bitcoin is at an ALL TIME high today...safe to say we still happy with our decision,” he said on X on July 14 as the asset surged to record highs above $120,000.

Even if you are not earning $750,000 and you are not rich enough to put all your salary into investment yet, accepting bitcoin for your salary sounds a good deal. Some people are worried about the fluctuations in the market but as long as the employer gives you the equivalent amount of btc in usd, I think there should be no problems, am I not right? The good thing is if you are planning to put your salary in bitcoin to invest, you do not need to convert it into bitcoin since it was given to you in bitcoin already.
